You could do something like this:
My server is in Delaware and I live in Hawaii. So if you want to calculate the 
time difference between 2 place(the server,and somebody in hawaii) this is one 
way. I found other examples in the CF docs.

>Right now the time is:<br>
  <cfset servertime = Now()>
  <cfset time = Now()>
  <cfset time = dateadd("h",-6,time) />

  <cfoutput>The server's time, which is in Delaware is  
#TimeFormat(servertime,'h:mm tt')#</cfoutput><br />
  <cfoutput>The time in Hawaii is  #TimeFormat(time,'h:mm tt')#</cfoutput>
